DISCUSSION

1. Technology innovations (i.e. Health Information Exchange, Clinical Decision Support, Personal Health Records, Telehealth) are having a profound effect on transforming nurses clinical practice.

For example, how we access, use, and communicate about clinical problems with patients. Describe some of the most pressing challenges and benefits of each of these innovations?

2. Two core competencies required for nurse experts to manage technology innovations include application level knowledge of the systems and clinical workflow design.

As you think about these core competencies for each of the innovations listed above, how do you propose that we assure nurses have appropriate knowledge about these types of systems. Also, how do you propose that we evaluate workflow to leverage the functionality of these innovations in practice?

Identify an appropriate congressional leader about a selected population health issue in your nearby community.

Nurse Staffing Standards for Hospital Patient Safety and Quality Care Act

There are no federal mandates regulating the number of patients a registered nurse can care for at one time in U.S. hospitals.

As a result, registered nurses (RNs) are consistently required to care for more patients than is safe, compromising patient care and negatively impacting patient outcomes.

This legislation would protect patients and improve health care by setting mandated, minimum, registered nurse-to-patient staffing ratios.

Identify an appropriate congressional leader about a selected population health issue in your nearby community.

You will need to research the official and explain why you chose to contact them (have they historically opposed or supported your selected population/issue? Are they involved in any committees/projects that might influence this population/issue?).

You may contact any nursing advocacy organization for related topics and/or legislative bills for information also.

You will then, write a one-page letter (not to be sent necessarily) to the identified congressional leader introducing yourself, giving

a brief summary with statistical/scientific support about the issue you are addressing. Finally, you must describe your suggested solution to the issue and what you desire the leader to do concerning it.

You must use three (3) scholarly resources in your research and submit the worksheet along with the letter for grading.

Once you have received feedback from the professor, this piece should be uploaded to the Completed e-portfolio in ProjectConcert.

You will not be graded on uploading each piece to the e-portfolio separately, but at the end there will be an overall grade for the completed e-portfolio.

It is in your best interest to become familiar with the technology early so that you are not struggling to catch up in the end. You can log in to ProjectConcert at: https://secure.projectconcert.com/frostburg/ (Links to an external site.).

You will be prompted to pay if you have not done so already. In Module 1 of this course there is an overview of ProjectConcert, it purpose, and student user guide.
